Project Details:
GM Informatics Joint Stock Company â°
(figure 1)
Founded in 2009, GM is an IT/ICT Managed Services Company that provides 360-degree IT Services and Support Services under the umbrella of Informatics Consultancy. GM Informatics Joint Stock Company provides IT Consulting, Services, and Support to many institutions and organizations in TĂŒrkiye. The company, which received international awards for its ITIL processes developed by itself, offers its corporate customers; provides the most efficient, effective, traceable, and reportable IT Services cycles. Award-winning Information Technologies Operations Centre (BTOM), Cyber ââSecurity Services Operations Centre (SOC), and Help-Desk continue to provide value-added services with Call-Centre operations, ensuring the customers get the best from their IT/ICT Systems.
IT Services
When we discuss IT Services in this project, our frameworks will be based on Remote Desktop IT Services like; Remote Help-Desk, Operations Centre, and Call Centre models based on #ITIL #COBIT #ISO20000 #MOF #SixSigma #Agile #LeanIT. According to TĂBÄ°SAD (Turkish Informatics Industry Association) 2022 report, IT Service market that also includes our work models like Remote Desktop IT Support/Services exceeded $1.86b just in TĂŒrkiye that our operations will be covering.
Decentralized Businesses - DeBu
Since the beginning of our vision, we have been seeking ways to adapt blockchain to business processes, frameworks, and workflows. Even though this concept needs a comprehensive analysis of a multi-disciplinary approach, we were keen on structuring the idea for the IT Services area, which is in our expertise. We try to explain that there will be various methods to integrate tokens and coins into the business processes rather than using them just for the payment tools (crypto), registration units (NFTs) or a division of gameplay (PlayToEarns), or a spendable meta in a virtual world (metaverse). We are implementing a DeBu model in this project for Decentralized IT Services
We have been conceptually working on the initialization of the DeBu (Decentralized Businesses) concept since 2019Âč. In simple terms, we believe DeBu tokens and coins are the future of blockchain for businesses; likewise, we also mention in web3.0, industry4.0, and business5.0 concepts.
The following project will explain how we have integrated the DeBu concept into the real-world IT Services scenario with the help of our company.
GMCoin
The proprietary and patented Blockchain TokenÂČ Project of GM Informatics JSC, GMCoin, was founded in 2018 and started to operate as a token under the Tron BlockchainÂł in 2019. Keeping in mind the company operations, IT Services, and the vision of our DeBu, we minted our token in 2019 with a TRC10 System Level Contract on Tron and with a token ID 1002357.
Platform ensures operationally decentralized teams (BTT, SGT, GT) will be fully ready for DAO-level organization in the future. With a limited production of 80 million units, 41 million of GMCoin is currently in circulation. The majority of GMCoin, which met with investors with different sales models in August and September of 2021, was later listed by LBank, Probit Global, BitMart, and IndoEx Cryptocurrency Exchange with USDT pair.
It is a project to support Decentralized Businesses, which is the motto of GMCoin, and to develop distributed and token-based business models for these businesses.
(figure 4)
The 360Ë Web3 assisted IT Service Platform
The 360Ë Web3 assisted IT Service Platform (figure 4) contains three main pillars; BTT, SGT, and GT, as mentioned in the project. A customer base action method is described below. To add more, a Vendor platform that is not within the scope of this web3 platform but tagged as a future vision.
This web3 platform is designed to primarily focus on customers, offering a user-friendly and intuitive UI/UX for swift registration and even faster creation of Service Requests. TRON Blockchain predominantly manages the authentication security of this platform, as customers are required to connect using a TRON-based wallet which will also promote the web3 adaption of the corporations and SMBs in TĂŒrkiye that will align with our DeBu -Decentralized Businesses- vision. This TRON-based wallet serves the dual purpose of connecting customers and tracking their processes. For regulatory compliance, certain information needs to be stored in our central database as well, though it does not influence the usage of our platform. These centralized DB pieces of information are subject to KYC and AML compliance that we should follow for regulatory purposes. Long story short, to access the platform, customers must use their TRON-based wallets. Companies need a compatible wallet to create an account or avail of our services. Itâs important to note that we only retain the walletâs public key. Even if potential intruders gain access to our central databases, they cannot access passwords (as they do not exist) or operate without the private key, which we do not store. However, we may use classical user/pass authentication methods for 2FA in the future, which is not the main focus of this web3 project.
Upon registration, customers access a user dashboard as a hub for various actions. Users can effortlessly create Service Requests (SRs) from this dashboard and subscribe to our annual service as Contracted Customers. The dashboard also provides valuable insights, including the number of open tickets associated with the account. The cost of a contract varies based on the quantity of subscribed IT Assets, encompassing PCs and Servers. Contracted Customers enjoy the perk of free SR creations for a year, along with additional benefits such as security software and backup services. Furthermore, Contracted Customers are rewarded with GMCoin, their allocation determined by the subscription price and a carefully crafted formula. Notably, this GMCoin is staked within TRON smart contracts. At the closing of a subscription term, subscribers have the right to receive their staked GMCoin. A discount is applied based on earned GMCoin if they opt to renew.
A sophisticated method of reward calculation encourages customers to persist with our IT Service for subsequent years. In case customers encounter any issues or uncertainties during any stage of this process, they can avail of assistance from our built-in crafted chatbot.
Project Status: MMR- Minimum Marketable Release
Problem:
SMBs cannot get IT services in a 7/24 manner, managed and within their budget
Solution:
Decentralized IT services with a robust tokenization model
Need:
GMdestek.com is a unique hybrid marketplace for the TĂŒrkiye market. According to TUBÄ°SAD (Turkish Informatics Industry Association) (âŽ) Turkish IT Service market has a revenue of $1.86b in 2022. GM Informatics JSC (â”) has professionally operated onsite and offsite IT service tasks for over fourteen years, and we have concluded that the costs are extremely high inoperable, unmanageable, and unsustainable. These facts may create unprofitable Managed IT Service Operations, and often these services are described as MSP (Managed Service Provider) Industry. Thereby, we plan to develop sustainable IT Service processes with the help of our expertize in the industry and with the power of our token GMCoin (â¶), which is based on a decentralized and DAO-supported blockchain TRON. Our empowered web3 vision will navigate us to integrate conventional IT service processes into TRON Blockchain.
How:
The 360° IT services platform GMDestek.com is built upon three main pillars. These pillars can also be described as âDecentralized Partner Networksâ in this project.
Explaining our project involves three core teams: BTT (Information Technologies Team), SGT (Sales Force Team), and GT (Investor Team).
BTT - Information Technologies Team:
BTT comprises skilled remote information technology support professionals. We built a website where the experts can make an appliance (â·). After carefully assessing applicants based on career, skills, experience, and expectations; we select qualified individuals for the BTT. The application forms require a wallet integration; hundreds of organically created and assessed Tron-based wallets are projected to be activated. We used the web3 Authentication methodology that helps us to strengthen the verification and login process that verifies the identity of the BTT with their public key structure rather than an email, username, or password. Once verified, they gain access to Help-Desk and Ticketing Portal (âž) and New Generation Remote Desktop Connection Portal (âč) where the regulations sit. These portals are based on centralized database structures for compliance, ensuring that the whole platform sits on a unique Hybrid architecture. Once connected, BTT engages in chat-based communication and utilizes the customerâs machine to troubleshoot issues. The software includes features for administering BTT workforce and safeguarding customers. For instance, it offers a toolbox to execute specific .bat files in various scenarios (e.g., opening folders, files). The entire process is meticulously recorded in our central databases in line with the regulatory obligations. After successfully resolving a Service Request (SR) Ticket, subject to customer and audit approval, our TRON-based smart contracts reward BTT members with GMCoin based on the SRâs tier level. We use tiering levels like Tier I, II, and III following the ITIL Service Catalog frameworks. These tiering levels are priced in different segments for customers. While our ITIL Management Team (in-house) currently determines the SLA (Service Level Agreement) and other details like complexity, the pricing methodology for the end user, and the reward ratios for the BTT, our plans involve implementing AI measures as our ticket pool evolves.
SGT - Sales Force Team:
SGT focuses on expanding our customer base. Primarily, nominee SGT individuals fill up a form on the website developed for SGT Team appliances (Âčâ°). Forming the SGT involves a rigorous selection process, considering career, skills, experience, and capabilities. SGT members handle customer onboarding and earn rewards when referred customers open Service Requests (SRs) or subscribe.
GT - Investor Team:
GT members earn rewards by investing in specific GMCoin-exclusive smart contracts through a dedicated web page under development (ÂčÂč). GMCoin can be acquired from the listed cryptocurrency exchanges (CEX). The web page will provide GT access to contract details and authorized functions, including investment, reward calculation, withdrawal requests, and stake termination (resulting in the return of the original GMCoin). The web page will also offer insights into GMCoin, such as recent trades, price movements, on-chain analytics, and the financial standpoint and ratios of gmdestek.com. GTâs smart contract employs an innovative and unique rewarding/stake structure similar to Repo (Repurchasing Agreement) in a classical financial world. Even though the whole project uses the aspects of web3, by this transformation method, the project also broadens the DeFi designs. The technique calculates rewards based on the number of opened Service Requests (SRs) and yearly contracted subscriptions. Subsequently, a predetermined percentage of rewards is distributed at the termâs end, not from the original GMCoin amount (which is returned at the termâs conclusion), but from opened Service Requests (SRs) and yearly contracted subscriptions within the period. We determine the specific percentage before publishing the smart contract, and it varies among contracts based on the initial GMCoin amount. This approach ensures GTâs earnings are aligned with the companyâs revenue growth.

BTT Contract
Smart Contracts Usage
BTT â BiliĆim Teknolojileri Takımı (Information Technology Services Team)
State Variables:
- âownerâ: This variable stores the address of the contract owner, who possesses the highest authority.
- âisOwnerâ: A mapping that keeps track of addresses recognized as owners.
âtransactionLengthâ: Total count of transactions recorded in the contract.
Struct:
This struct is automatically generated when a Service Request (SR) is closed by a BTT team member. Hybrid cloud systems and Java, PHP, and Solidity scripts manage the trigger mechanism. This trigger process adds the following information to the smart contract:
- âsubmitterâ: The Web3 address responsible for recording the transaction in the smart contract. Initially planned to be the SC deployer or the owner for security reasons.
- âconfirmerâ: The Web3 address that initiated the SR, typically the customerâs authenticated address, is controlled solely by the end user/customer/company. This address can confirm the transaction for GMCoin delivery.
- âtoâ: The Web3 address designated for the BTT, which receives GMCoins upon successful SR closure.
- âvalueâ: The amount of GMCoins scheduled for delivery to the BTT.
- âexecutedâ: A boolean field indicating whether the transaction is complete. It is included in case of future multi-signature approvals or time-based triggers.
- âconfirmedâ: A boolean field indicating if the âconfirmerâ address signs the transaction. It may switch to âyesâ if the âconfirmerâ address fails to sign the transaction within 72 hours after SR completion.
- âtimestampâ: A Unix-style uint256 timestamp recording the precise submission time of the struct to the smart contract. They are used for time tracking and withdrawal of GMCoins by the BTT if the âconfirmerâ does not initiate the transaction.
Transactions List:
- âtransactionsâ: A list of structs containing details of all transactions within the contract.
Constructor:
- The constructor initializes the contract with the address of the contract owner (â_ownerâ) and sets ânumConfirmationsRequiredâ to 1. It also verifies the validity of the ownerâs address.
Modifiers:
- âonlyOwnerâ: Ensures that a function can only be executed by the contract owner.
- âonlyConfirmerâ: Ensures that a function can be executed by the confirmer of a specific transaction or the contract owner.
- âonlyToâ: Ensures that a function can be executed by the recipient of a specific transaction or the contract owner.
Transaction Management Functions:
- âsubmitTransactionâ: Allows the contract owner to submit a new transaction for confirmation.
- âconfirmTransactionâ: Permits a confirmer to confirm a transaction.
- âconfirmTransactionForBTTâ: Enables the recipient to confirm a transaction if it remains unconfirmed for 72 hours.
- âexecuteTransactionâ: Executes a confirmed transaction by transferring the specified GMCoins to the BTT.
Utility Functions:
- âgetTransactionLengthâ: Returns the total number of transactions in the contract, aiding synchronization with hybrid cloud databases.
- âtransferBalanceToOwnerâ: Allows the contract owner to transfer the contractâs balance to their address.
- ârefillContractâ: Permits the sending of TRX to replenish the contractâs balance for potential future energy, bandwidth, and power implementations.
SGT Contract
SGTâ SatÄ±Ć GĂŒcĂŒ Takımı (Sales Force Team)
State Variables:
- âownerâ: This variable stores the address of the contract owner, who has the highest authority.
- âisOwnerâ: A mapping that keeps track of addresses considered owners.
- âtransactionLengthâ: The total number of transactions in the contract.
Struct:
This struct is automatically written when an SR (Services Request) is closed by a BTT team member who has previously withdrawn the SR and assigned it to themselves. Hybrid cloud systems and java, PHP, and solidity scripts control the trigger mechanism. This trigger method adds the information below to the SC.
- âsubmitterâ: Web3 address who records this transaction to the SC/Blockchain. This address is currently planned to be the SC deployer or the owner rather than the treasury for security purposes
- âconfirmerâ: Web3 address that has previously created SR. In our case, this address is one of our authenticated addresses, and the PK is ONLY controlled by us. This address is able to confirm the transaction for the delivery of the GMCoinâs
- âtoâ: Web3 address for the SGT. This address will get rewarded with GMCoinâs when the SR is successfully closed
- âvalueâ: Amount of GMCoinâs planned to be delivered to SGT
- âexecutedâ: A yes-no field (Boolean) that shows whether the entire transaction is done. This field is added in case of more signature (multi-signature) approvals in the future or added control for the time-based triggers in the future
- âconfirmedâ: A yes-no field (Boolean) that shows whether the transaction is signed by the âconfirmerâ address or not. This field can also switch to yes if the âconfirmerâ address is not signed for the transaction within 72 hours of the completion of the SR. This control mechanism ensures that if the âconfirmerâ (we are in this case) has forgotten PK (wallet access)
- âtimestampâ: A Unix type uint256 that is a timestamp value holds the exact time for submission of this entire struct to the SC. We use this for recording time, and if the SGT wants to withdraw the GMCoinâs in case the âconfirmerâ has not triggered anything
Transactions List:
- âtransactionsâ: A list of structs that stores the details of all transactions created within the contract
Constructor:
- The constructor initializes the contract with the contract ownerâs address (â_ownerâ) and sets the ânumConfirmationsRequiredâ to 1. It also checks if the ownerâs address is valid
Modifiers:
- âonlyOwnerâ: Ensures that a function can only be executed by the contract owner
- âonlyConfirmerâ: Ensures that a function can be executed by the confirmer of a specific transaction or the contract owner
- âonlyToâ: Ensures that a function can be executed by the recipient of a specific transaction or the contract owner
Transaction Management Functions:
- âsubmitTransactionâ: Allows the contract owner to submit a new transaction for confirmation
- âconfirmTransactionâ: Allows the confirmer to confirm a transaction
- âconfirmTransactionForSGTâ: Allows the recipient to confirm a transaction if itâs not confirmed within 72 hours
- "executeTransaction ââ: Executes a confirmed transaction by transferring the specified GMCoinâs to the SGT
Utility Functions:
- âgetTransactionLengthâ: Returns the total number of transactions in the contract. We use this for synchronizing SC to our hybrid cloud Databases
- âtransferBalanceToOwnerâ: Allows the contract owner to transfer the contractâs balance to their address
- ârefillContractâ: Allows to send TRX to refill the contractâs balance for flexible future implementations of energy, bandwidth, and power if needed
